5 Books, 5 Heroes— heroes pushed to their limits. It is 17th century Japan, a time and place of violent upheaval.. wandering Ronin, Wolverine, Pyslocke, Punisher, Hulk and Deadpool.
I've read the first two and it's a great series so far..
Has anyone else picked this up yet?

For a second there I thought you were talking about the character Ronin. lol
So is this an alternate reality or something, or did those 5 people just get sent back in time?

I've seen it around, but haven't bothered checking into it. Don't really know much about it to be interested really.

I liked the Wolverine one, the twist at the end really got me.. The Hulk one was good too and the interaction between him and Deadpool was pretty funny..
But I really want to see the Psylocke issue..

I liked the Wolverine and Hulk one. Punisher one was so-so in my opinion because he pretty much did to that family exactly what had happened to his. I'm looking forward to the Psylocke one, but more than that I'm looking forward to the Deadpool one. I feel like that one is going to tie them all together.

Just read the Punisher issue of Ronin, wasn't as good as #1 and #2 issue but it still was a great read.. bit messed up too imo.. I'm looking forward to the Psylocke one, but more than that I'm looking forward to the Deadpool one. I feel like that one is going to tie them all together. Yeha I'm thinking the same way after reading the Punisher issue but I think a lot will be explained in the Psylocke issue.

I read the Wolverine issue. I did not find it that interesting. The art was great though.

Yeah the first few pages were like an interdiction to the 5 Ronin I think but I liked the twist at the end, didn't you?

I pouted about it not being about 616 Wolverine. I thought someone was finally acknowledging his time as a time-hoping agent of L.L.L.

OH SNAP! who thought it would end like that? I mean the character who had the least reason to killed the Daimyo, killed him.
Ok so the series has end what did poeple think?
